Hi guys, I've been following SC2 via tourneys and castings by several casters. I've also followed Day9's daily shows and I'm quite impressed by the scene. I've previously done about 7-8 missions of the SP on *ahem* a previous version but I got very annoyed with the upgrades that they had in the ship (campaign unlock thingy for units) I completed the missions using only my mouse and through a combination of sheer luck and twitchy fingers, I managed. I gave up due to the upgrade bit.

I'm interested in starting to play it online but I have no idea which server to play on and how to start. I am living in Kedah so my internet can get spazzy most of the times. I am concerned about the ping to NA servers since I've read from the forums that most of you guys play on NA right? Would love some lessons from all you guys here.

Regarding experience on RTS, I beat WC3 and normally 'zerged' my way to victory. I also did Total War: Rome as well as Shogun 2 but finally lost my patience due to cheating AI.

You can try at SEA server 1st. Choose your favorite race and start play quick match. You will experience losses in your early ladder career due to fact that you are still new to this game. take time and read more strategy and watch casting match and replay.

NA ping is playable
SEA ping is much better and if you like micro this is the server to play, it is not dead but harder for beginner cause mostly SEA players are silver above.

RM160 for the ori game. Have fun

Join team night channel if u are looking for games... Most of them there are either from my or sg. Sea is not dead for lower leagues. It becomes more dead when u move up the league starting from top 8 diamond. Die to the vicious cycle of people hitting gm in SEA and then moving off to other servers. Mainly TW or NA.
